Ingredients

Crust:

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

¼ cup granulated sugar

Filling:

1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons)

Zest of 2 lemons

1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

1 cup heavy whipping cream

½ cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

Topping:

Fresh whipped cream

Lemon slices or zest for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Crust:

- In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined.

- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Make sure to pack it tightly for stability.

- Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

Make the Filling:

- In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and sweetened condensed milk. Whisk until smooth and well blended.

- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.

- Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture until fully combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

Assemble the Pie:

- Pour the lemon filling into the chilled graham cracker crust and spread it evenly.

- Smooth the top with a spatula, then cover the pie with plastic wrap or foil.

- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to set.

Serve:

- Once the pie is set, slice it into wedges. Top each slice with fresh whipped cream and garnish with lemon slices or additional zest if desired.

- Enjoy the refreshing and tangy flavors of your No Bake Lemon Pie!
